AFCEA and the participating federal agencies proudly present the
Fourth Federal Data Mining Symposium and Exposition '01.  Based on
the success of previous years' symposiums, the theme for this year
will be Data Mining to Enable Knowledge Management, emphasizing the
need for better and more automated methods of analysis and synthesis
of data.  As the amount of data being collected and stored increases
dramatically, it becomes imperative that we continue to be prepared
for future events, not just within the Government Community, but also
within any community where data mining will facilitate the creation
of knowledge from which future decision-making may take place.

Data users, analysts, administrators, managers, developers,
researchers, theoreticians, and vendors are cordially invited to
attend and submit papers for presentation at Federal Data Mining '01.
The previous Federal Data Mining Symposia included numerous vendors
and all types of researchers and users of data mining tools and
techniques to create a unique opportunity to discuss data mining in
the domain of the government.  There is no element of the Federal
Government, nor information technology corporation, that does not
have a critical interest in "mining the golden nugget" from the vast
repositories of information available to them.

The conference will be held September 25-26, 2001 at the Department of
Commerce, Herbert C. Hoover building.  For more information and
